I've never been able to figure the relationship between being against anti-semitism and the promotion of homosexuality. No serious or intellectually honest Jew is going to claim that the Torah is accepting of homosexual conduct.

From the Torrance Education Foundation website:

An important part of TEF's activities is the soliciting of funds, or donations, from Torrance businesses and residents.

TEF

The article doesn't get into the financial aspects, including whether rent is being paid for use of the school facility.

I see you live in CA, you should know that I live a mile and half away from North High in Torrance CA before speculating on what the source of the TEF funds are.

Proximity doesn't equal knowledge.

So your next in the box LfD, since "gfactor"did'nt have the huevos to answer me.

Not familiar with the particulars, so I won't take your challenge.

Yes anyone can use that ping.

[Khepera]

You can use it.

GLIDE is not invited, and the ADL is going to boycott.

This falls into the "two birds with one stone" category of windfall.

“We feel that through diversity retreats and conflict resolution, you can address this and all other forms of discrimination, which will include youngsters who are fat, not good-looking, or racial and ethnic groups that are not part of the majority,” she said.

These folks continually try to glom on to every other group in order to legitimize their lifestyle. Last I heard, being fat, not good looking or from another racial or ethnic group wouldn't increase your chances of dying from a particularly horrible disease spread mainly through the kind of activities that GLIDE supports.

And I also refuse to use the word 'gay' to describe homosexuals. They are NOT happy people, and it incenses me that a particulary pleasant word has been co-opted so that it can't be used anymore except for them!

Good luck to you folks! And thank you for standing up in support of your children and those in the whole community.
